[@garysizemore3729]

consider putting the power strip for the chargers on a timer to run an hr a nite so they aren’t charging 24/7. I have heard of chargers causing fires in the past. Great vid wish i was closer to give you a hand.

[@Building_Jays_Way]

Pro tip.

[@gwendolyndaigle6546]

My shelf would have been higher than that if that goat came in on me! Best laugh i have had in a long time. I cried tears! 😂

[@loissimmons1848]

Jay instead of using a pan to catch the dust from the miter saw use a thick plastic clear bag and use a twist tie to hold it on when you move it to a different position to catch the dust that way the dust will be in the bag .

[@robertbeauregard7157]

38:14 My favorite moment of your best video: "Well, look at THAT, it's the same size as THAT. Well, THAT's pretty cool. I didn't even realize THAT!" Jason, you're so cool.

[@c.a.g.1977]

39:38 and all the fancy carpenter vocabulary he's using now he's a big KZbinr: 'the ever so slightly little nib of the wood" Whaaaatttt??😄

[@Joe-zk7ps]

What I love about you and the whole Perkins crew is you don't get precious and try to create "the ultimate miter station" like so many of the YT shop crowd. Just something basic that works and lets you work. Always love your videos!

[@johnlreim]

that was the quickest 45 mins in a while. Lots of good ideas and pro tips. Well done Jay.

[@colinstuartsmith]

The product placement is staggering Jay.... Dewalt tools startegically placed everywhere 😂

[@curranwilliamson1300]

Love his style. Nothing has to be fancy just functional

[@Aliceswonderclam]

The short to short 10 1/4 fence idea is actually really handy and something I have not thought about before

[@eab041]

Great episode

[@d3lsl0w]

Jay, look into grounding your vacuum hoses. Lots of static electricity builds up and wood dust goes up in flames pretty easy. It's a simple as drilling a screw halfway into some plastic housing and running a copper wire to a ground.

[@rickroberts2198]

We used to give our wide belt sander dust to a pyrotechnics guy cuz it's so incendiary😉 I've never known anyone that didn't ground their hoses.

[@aimforcody]

Hey man, for your miter saw, run your vacuum hose from the bottom! Love the channel, you've been doing great.

[@Building_Jays_Way]

Yeah heard that. I might have to give it a tey

[@JRHuffsmith]

I forgot what those DeWalt Portable Benches look like new. I've used mine for everything from an outfeed table, painting table, cabinet assembly table, and a miter saw stand. You name it, the possibilities are endless with them. And when you need to use them outside the shop, they're simple to move. One warning Jay, make sure when you are opening them that the legs are facing away from you, or else you'll be singing soprano. Haha. Thanks for the vids.

[@luisnieto1547]

The goat 😂 16:34

[@GeoKnowLearning]

Love when goats show up out of no where! lol!

[@dougmccabe2487]

Love the new shop. A suggestion, i added a retractable 75’ extension cord reel to my shop and its amazing. Power anywhere you need it. I’ve also put all my big tools on platforms with casters. Miter sawstand , table saw, planer, all on casters. Makes life much easier.

[@davidcrofts5246]

You want to see if you can get hold of some second hand kitchen units and worktop for your mitre saw table. You could have one worktop running the length of the shop with a cut out for the saw. It would keep level a lot easier and give you a load more storage in all the units underneath.

[@daviddrover-smith7217]

Great start jay. Best part of having a shop is to always keep changing it to make it better for your needs great stuff

[@fredgerstler]

You really need to put the dust collector in your new shed. It will give you more space in the shop and reduce the noise.

[@Building_Jays_Way]

Yeah that would be good but not enough room. I should have thought of that 1st.

[@kevinknoll5890]

I'm liking ur lights in the garage hey good build ur doing I watch u guys all the time

[@someyoungguy6990]

Jason, handy tip is to number your batteries. First you always know how many you take/pack down every day, but you can work them in order so you never kill just one of them by over working it. Also if you are working them hard like on a grinder or high demand tool and eating your way through them you always know what's on charge and where you are in your line up so you have a better chance of running all day without waiting for charge times. You should just make a timer box for the chop saw swarf, also it will work better if you pull air from the bottom and get a free gravity assist. The shop is looking dialed in mate, huge upgrade and you should be proud!!

[@dianapickering6891]

Jay, my mom would approve of the shop. We bought power tools for her for gifts. She loved working with wood.

[@tcolgan12]

Nice job, Jay . Wish i could walk in my garage, let alone put all my tools in it like you did.

[@ericlarson1821]

You should swap the table saw and planer locations. The planer seems to be a more permanent piece with the stand you made for it, whereas the portable table saw if you wanted to move it, you have to move hoses and pull it out from between two permanent pieces. Just a thought.

[@JLuckBlog]

The workshop is really coming together. Glad to see another video Jay. I no you're working with the P.Brothers. make more videos.i so enjoy watching you like the P.Bros. way to go Jay. Genius 👍

[@vincentking8874]

Another option for making 45’s easy is just add the thickness of the material twice, as in 1-1/2” material add 3” to the shorts and you know your longs unquestionably. My go to for door casings. I used to try at measuring shorts but the math is so easy and cuts simpler if you know your longs, or sharps maybe the more common phrasing.

[@golfman6062]

Looks great Jayson. I'm sure those oil stains are bothering you. I mentioned the "Polock Broom" a few episodes ago. Get a 2X4 and some Oil-Dri. Sprinkle the Oil-Dri on the spots. Take the 2X4 block and scrub the Oil-Dri on the stains. This does 2 things. It crushes those big particles of absorbent. Then those fine particles gets down into the porous surface of the concrete. In 2-3 minutes the stain will be gone. We had a 4X4 with a broom handle screwed in at a 45. That's what we called the "Polock Broom".

[@RitaFarrow]

plenty of room under your chopsaw bench for cabinets 2 put your smaller items/tools, would you need to box in the sawdust collectors they seem 2b abit loud/noisy,great to see you moving in the right direction,like u love a new build in the shop,i can cu changing a few bits ,cheers from the uk

[@nathanbasey5531]

Glad you stuck to your word about the fire.

[@justatim8143]

You may be better off moving the dust collector on the miter saw to the bottom using elbows as dust sucks more from the bottom.

[@mylesdent2214]

Go Jay 💪💪💪

[@nadinehenry7985]

Nice

[@5280Woodworking]

Looks great! One recommendation is use 4” hose until the very last inch. These DCs aren’t great with smaller hoses.

[@hoofington7866]

On the chop saw suction. Try sucking from below as the 2" suction hose isn't large enough to overcome gravity. But either way youll need to make a more pecise box and add a lip to the bottom edge of the box to catch the dust the hose doesn't. Hope that makes sence

[@truewoodwerks]

Jay, great job on the shop - looking good. Lots of great ideas I can implement into my shop. Thanks man!

[@dayneausmus9925]

Jay! Amazing job buddy. Glad I found your channel along side the Perkins channel. It’s a great compliment to see you doing your own thing and you’re doing great. Good job with the ads too. Keep it up!

[@Building_Jays_Way]

Welcome aboard!

[@Kristina_Australia]

Thanks for a great video. You surprised me with the length of this, I started watching with my husband at breakfast but had to stop half way and finished it without him during my lunch break 😂. Great set ups, I'm sure as you use them you will modify, it's never ending 😉 . Loved the visit from the goat and dog, Charlie and those lights. Enjoy your workshop

[@glenlongstreet7]

I bought a neat trick device from Amazon. It is an outlet that turns on your vacuum when you start a tool that is ready for dust collection. I use it with my table saw and my surface planer. The device has two places to plug things into. ' A' is for your tool, 'B' is for your vacuum. The vacuum starts when you power up your tool and then runs for 7 seconds after you turn your tool off. It only cost $35, much cheaper than buying a vacuum with the device build in. I didn't attach it to my slide miter saw. I have tried many ways to capture the dust from the miter saw and the best way I have found is to put a trash barrel under my miter saw bench. I did build a cowl to help direct the sawdust.

[@terencemerritt]

Check out Spencer Lewis insider carpentry. He has that dust hood thing that is sweet!

[@denniscarreno5882]

Looking good Jay!

[@thepagan5432]

Looking good mate. My son and I built our workshop outside on the concrete base of an old proper greenhouse, but I've been too ill to do anything in it, but I built a small workshop in the attic, and built stairs to get up there. Vever's products are really good for the average workshop, and they will not break the bank either. Well done Jay, regards to you and the family 👍

[@tii2015]

Loving every minute of it Jay! Looks awesome& great job! Let's go build something!

[@zevab3178]

I actually enjoyed this series. You did a fantastic job.

[@JustinJohnson-q6b]

You can get a retractable 3 headed extension cord. Mount it to the ceiling above your table saw and planer and you’re set. The shop is coming along nicely.

[@c.a.g.1977]

That is an awesome woodshop you got there, Jason! Amazing what you whipped up on your own!! Iwish I had the space to set up my shop! 👍👍👍 Maybe you already did this: but you could make a bracket to hold up the hose that comes from the planer, because otherwise it always is in the way of the outfeeding boards coming through the planer.

[@diyjosef3328]

This is the kind of workshop I love. Greetings from Hannover Germany.

[@debby8428]

Nice!!!

[@DrTubeman]

Excellent Jay, your new workshop looks bloody swish as, well organized, and functional. Pepe the goat turning up was a laugh, the goat must have come to check out your handiwork lol. Cheers for the reel.

[@mr.dragoncrypto4138]

Excellent Pro-tip! Better watch out Jay, Jamie might come use your shop now its ballin so hard! Shop's looking great my man!

[@mjomalley1606]

Yet again you are the best….kudos on the way you share the reality of diy….love every second you are on!

[@Building_Jays_Way]

Thanks so much 😊

[@GLugoElectric01]

Hey Jay, Wonderful job with your side shed, the black color looks cool. Ever since you started with Ray I have been watching all your videos. One thing I would like to mention that is not related to construction, is that you kind of look like Pablo Schreiber the actor who plays Spartan Master Chief on the Halo TV show. When I watch the show and he is on, it reminds me of you. That is how I see it, maybe other people will see you differently. Keep it the Jay’s way.

[@jasonmccoy902]

Love 🎉your videos. So much fun to watch you…

[@Building_Jays_Way]

Yay! Thank you!

[@kenmaira]

That is looking amazing - great job on the finish! I've not been commenting, but just as a heads up, when you ever do any painting, make sure you do it right under those lights.

[@janetdupree6353]

SWEET😊! You really are a carpenter 🔨🔧🪛🪚🗜️⛏️🪓🧰🔩⚙️😅

[@samcorrone3664]

Love the vids Jason. With the dust extractor consider having a permanent floor attachment called a "floor sweep box" amazing for shop cleanup you'll be glad you did it. and you can get a splitter for one of the outlets that reduces to 2 x 50mm so you'll still have the necessary points you need.

[@gdworkshop]

Great video. Shop turned out brilliant. Great tools. Look forward to the content your going to build now.

[@BrandonEley]

Shop is coming along nicely! For the power for your table saw and planer just get a retractable extension cord reel and mount it on the ceiling right between the garage doors and you can pull it down and plug in both appliances but if you need to you can always retract it back to the ceiling.

[@guillanokaslan4405]

Job wel done 👌

[@braxtond7889]

Nice job, Jason! It looks really nice 💯😎🇺🇸✌🏼🫶🏼

[@michaelmiller1109]

Screws are the right choice. Honestly I prefer them in most applications that they are allowed.

[@rodpotts2666]

those Dewalt foldup benches are very good some of the best out .

[@loissimmons1848]

Jay i meant use a zip tie to hold the bag on the miter saw keep up the good work.

[@caveweta]

Glad you stopped that circular saw when you did, with no push stick in sight all I could think of was “Jamie’s hand”. I actually think about that every time I turn on my circular saw or planer.

[@bobbywweaver]

There's a really nice upgrade you can make to that planer by adding the Byrd Shelix sprial cutter head. It's pricey, but you will get fantastic results from planing, it reduces the noise level, and it's super easy to rotate the cutter heads after damage/wear. In short, it's far and away better than the straight knives.

[@Mach34i]

Wow jay i can see your garage from here! I live in CT. looks great!

[@TomCrossley-s2v]

I always put double duplex receptacles for any workbench electrical boxes. You Always need more places to plug in, without adding plug strips or extension cords! Just a thought.

[@CaptainRon13]

Smart man!

[@javieraviles6314]

Awesome , I know the feeling.

[@johnmcnaught7453]

Nice !

[@JerrellKull]

Yup, I was screaming at my phone....lol. Your shop turned out nice! Y'all take care.

[@rickroberts2198]

Outlet from above dude. Nice work!

[@LwKeyX_X]

Looks amazing👍

[@joecool9124]

Move the gate on the chop saw over tthe the vacuum. you only have to go to one place to set your gates fot each machine.

[@jamiespears1075]

Great shop setup Jay. Wish i had one like it. Love your work.

[@josephsfields]

Just found your channel after you mentioned it on an older Perkins video from a year ago. Will be looking for your future videos and feel free to include dog and goat guests on the program.

[@cameronbarber3768]

I'd just attach that DeWalt vacuum up to the miter saw for now until you can figure out a better solution to your dust collector. The vacuum hose off that will be much closer to the size of the miter saw. Also some extension chord reels would be amazing for that table saw and planer you could have one that attached to the ceiling in the center of the room and whenever you need the table saw or planer just pull the chord down and plug in whichever tool you want to use

[@lynneforgie6711]

Great job. I'm expecting great things now you have a dedicated shop 😁

[@gabrielestrada4803]

My suggestion is to move any noise stuff to other side of wall. Compressor and dust to shed side. Less noise is better

[@tylerleblanc9958]

keep it up jay, the quality increases with every video you release, i am a redseal carpenter from Canada, and although somethings may not always be the best way to do something you are on the right track to be one hell of a tradesman and continue to put out entertaining content. cheers my man! 🤘🏼

[@BeardedMike2]

Jason do a 1 year review and show us any changes you've made after using and learning the new shop...we all will like to see that

[@dianapickering6891]

That would be awesome.

[@thebl4ckd0g]

really awesome work and progress, Jay. Looking Great!!!! :)

[@Aunty-A]

Looks great! Those lites are bangin’!!!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

[@eviltoadstudios]

Nice dust collections, if you get the opportunity swap the ridged flex pipe with straight smooth, where possible as it improves the suction over long distances by cutting down on turbulence in the pipe

[@konakona997]

Put rollers on that work table so you can move it around

[@IosefaTito]

Awesome transformation, new subscriber Aloha from Alaska

[@adb1950]

really proud of you Jay, looks great

[@scotthackl3718]

I’m not sure if you know it or not but some of us don’t watch your videos to learn about building but for the entertainment of watching you learn the hard way. Lol.

[@tommywillis9636]

Awesome job Jay! Love the shop and how it’s not a “cookie cutter” shop that looks too perfect to use! You can tell that it’s a shop that would be fun to hang out in and drink some beer and make cool things for fun! 👍

[@garylcampbell9964]

Looks like quite the transformation.

[@rodpotts2666]

I would leave the miter saw blast gate open and table saw at the same time. you will get more suction and be better for the dust collectior.

[@tonyjones5788]

looks wicked for a working workshop.

[@augustmamolito2247]

Good Job,Love them Lights

[@derekfenton6788]

Keep growing the channel Jay. Love the content man!!

[@MrClay-ie9fe]

Great improvement Jay. a lot of learning always. me being a beginner. thanks again man.

[@michaelsparks6084]

Great Job Jaybo!

[@davidwood5877]

You did good on that shop

[@davidwood5877]

@BuiIding_Jays_Way I live in South Carolina, so I’m not too far

[@glennman0922]

Damn! Can’t tell you how excited I get when I open up my KZbin app and see there’s a new video from Jay. LFG!!!!

[@WilliamPuetz-q5d]

The inch monster visits me sometimes too but i never had a goat visit. Enjoyed your video. You and the lads take care.

[@daviddziegielewski653]

So much nicer! Now you can work efficiently. And you'll be able to find your tools.

[@miltonhurd1016]

Outfeed table is my next project. Thanks for making it doable!
